Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 556
◈ 556. [[Evil Side] Impregnable (5)
“I'm sorry, Damien..”
While returning to Crossroads from Area 8 of the Lake Kingdom.
Ash apologized as sniper Damian, who had been waiting in the distance, joined him..
“I entrusted you with a difficult task again..”
To ensure that the Jackal died comfortably, Ash instructed Damian to shoot him. And Damien carried out the order without hesitation..
“I'm OK. Prince.”
Damien nodded silently..
“It was to make Jackal feel comfortable..”
“…….”
“And, moving forward… … It's okay if you give me the task of sniping them..”
Damian glared at his enemies with clear eyes. Not far away, the fallen knights were drooling as they looked at us..
“You may have once been human... … Because they are definitely monsters now..”
“…….”
After taking a deep breath, Ash exhaled in a strong tone..
“Let's go back.”
So much strength went into the hand holding the flagpole that it turned white..
Grinding his teeth, Ash chewed and spit it out..
“To completely annihilate them, leaving no one behind. Let's get ready.”
***
a few days later.
black lake.
Shoot aaaaa!
The 13 members of the Fallen Knights appeared after parting the surface of the water..
Originally, she would have been prevented from advancing by the nameless one, but for some reason she did not even appear in front of the fallen knights..
The battle between the Black Dragon Legion and the Demon Guardian Corps has expanded, and the Lake Kingdom is currently extremely confused..
The fallen knights could only guess that the one whose name was lost was caught up in that battle..
The dark event that the Fallen Knights received this time is ‘Strengthening’.)’.
The effect is simple. Amplifies all abilities at once.
They are already a small, elite group of fallen knights, but it was a dark event that made their individual powers even stronger..
The Acting Authority gave this to the person who lost his name after much painstaking effort to advance without losing a single person, but the person who lost his name did not even show up..
The situation was strange, but I was grateful if I didn't stop it anyway..
In the end, all 13 people were able to land on the outside world intact..
crackling-
After riding on a corpse horse, a horse made of bones and rotten flesh,.
《Is it the sun?…….》
Raising his head and looking at the sky, Corrupt King Pendragon frowned under his helmet..
《Still casting a hateful light.》
This is the southern part of the continent.
The summer afternoon sun blazed and shined directly on the fallen knights. It was hot and bright. It was not a very friendly environment for the monsters buried in the dark..
《That winter, not even a single beam of light was shining on us.…….》
《After we destroy royalties, let us also throw down that sun. maharaja.》
《Kihi, kihihihi, what does the sun taste like?…….》
One of the fallen knights who was giggling and making jokes suddenly looked with a straight face and rubbed his stomach..
《By the way, majesty, I’m hungry.…….》
《How long has it been since you last had a meal?.》
《No matter how much I eat, no matter how much I eat, why am I still hungry?…….》
After being revived in the Lake Kingdom, the Fallen Knights were completely free from food problems..
That's because all the humans in the Lake Kingdom were cursed with eternal life, and no matter how much they ate, they were immediately revived..
Although they were dull and boring prey that had no reaction even if you chewed them alive because they had completely lost their minds. Thanks to this, the Fallen Knights were always prosperous..
However, as soon as they left the base and set out, they felt hungry. And Pendragon also felt hungry..
Pendragon swept his hand across his stomach in vain..
《……It's a market.》
《I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry…….》
Unable to bear it, one knight started biting his own finger. Pendragon clicked her tongue and gestured towards Inse's advance base, which was visible not far away..
《good night. Let's invade that place quickly. Judging by the size, there must be plenty to eat..》
《Kihi, kihihihi! Come on, come on!》
《gulp. Honey.》
《I want to chew on a living, beating heart……!》
Drooling through the cracks of their helmets, the 13 fallen knights hastily approached the forward base..
These 13 knights were extremely confident in their own martial prowess, but they were also fully aware of the overwhelming battle performance of Inse's defenders..
The Spider Queen, the Vampire King, the Wolf King, the Goblin God King, the Ghost Pirate Captain, and even the Magic Emperor. According to the rumor heard here, even the daughter of the Lord of the Dead and the Demon Demon.
A powerful defensive front that is said to have defeated as many as eight nightmare corps commanders. This place, Crossroads, is worthy of being called the last line of defense against royalties..
Pendragon was ignoring all those who called themselves kings in the Lake Kingdom except for himself..
But even so, I didn't think they were weak..
These monsters were completely defeated by Inse's commander and defense forces..
‘I admit it. Inse's defense force is strong..’
So don't let down your guard.
I will crush them with all my might and feast on their flesh as trophies. An evil laugh came out through the gap in Pendragon's helmet..
《Everyone draw your weapons!》
Let's determine that the forward base is close enough and within the enemy's interception range..
Pendragon pulled out his great sword, the man-eating sword Xcarnival. Then, his subordinate knights all drew their terrible weapons..
A huge scythe, a polearm with coiled tentacles, a flaming longsword that starts fire with human fat, and a flail made entirely of finger bones.…….
After looking back at his subordinates, Pendragon pointed his greatsword forward and shouted..
《It's dinner time! charge-!》
《Turn around-!》
《I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat!》
13The knights all rushed forward on their respective corpse horses and raced towards the forward base..
But why?.
《……?》
Even though the fallen knights got closer by the minute, there was no interception at the forward base..
‘what?’
Pendragon, who was famous as the king of conquerors before being turned into a monster, felt something was wrong. He was a man who had experienced many wars in his lifetime..
Why is there no interception??
Is it a trap to draw them in further and then strike them out??
No, but…….
‘I don't feel popular at all.?’
Not only was there an interception, but nothing else flew from the forward base..
As if it's empty without anyone…….
Soon, other fallen knights also noticed something strange. All the knights gradually slowed down and slowly stopped in front of the gate of the forward base..
《maharaja!》
At that time, a long-haired fallen knight approaching the castle gate called out to Pendragon in a puzzled tone..
《The door is open, Your Majesty.!》
《What the heck……?》
When Pendragon was surprised, it was real..
The thick gate of the forward base was not locked, but was slightly open as if to let people in at will..
《Let's go in first..》
The long-haired Corrupt Knight took the lead and opened the castle gate, and the remaining Corrupt Knights followed closely, preparing to launch an attack inside at any time..
But - there wasn't.
Interception too. Even the enemy. no, nothing.
After confirming that there were no enemies, the fallen knights poured into the forward base. And I was embarrassed as I looked inside the empty forward base..
The clean and perfectly maintained forward base was empty. Pendragon fell silent..
《Are you saying these facilities are not used for defense? Just leave it blank……?》
《maharaja. there is no one.》
The fallen knights who toured the entire interior of the forward base eventually returned and reported..
《Judging by the sense of living, it seems like the facility was used until just yesterday… … It looks like he knew we were coming and kicked us out..》
《…….》
There was something strange about the Pendragon, but that didn't mean it couldn't kill an enemy that wasn't there..
《i get it. First, rob the warehouse here to find food. Let's eat first.》
《Ah, great king! I don't want to eat anything unless it's human flesh..》
《Since being revived, I have never eaten anything other than human flesh.…….》
《Stop whining, you idiots. Isn’t it war time now?.》
While Pendragon was calming his fussing subordinates, the long-haired Corrupt Knight who came to check the warehouse broke into a cold sweat..
《My, your majesty, that is… … There is no food in sight..》
《what?》
《The warehouse is completely empty. Not a speck of dust.》
Silence fell.
Pendragon frowned as if it was absurd..
《What on earth does that mean? In a base of this size, the facility was used until yesterday... … The warehouse is empty?》
but it was true.
When Pendragon checked, it was true. All warehouses at the forward base were clean and empty..
《Was it taken out through the teleport gate?…….》
Pendragon clicked his tongue as he kicked a pile of collapsed magic stones..
I was annoyed, but that didn't mean I couldn't fill the empty warehouse. At that time, the other fallen knights whined..
《maharaja…….》
《hungry… … I feel like I'm going crazy…….》
《Tsk.》
Pendragon gestured towards the nearby forest..
《Let's go hunting. There must be animals in the forest over there. let's go.》
So the fallen knights who left the forward base entered the forest..
However, a few hours after starting the hunt, the fallen knights noticed another abnormality..
《Something is strange, Your Majesty..》
《…….》
《Let alone people… … There isn't a single animal in sight.》
Saaaaa-
Only the hot wind passed through the silent forest..
《It's like a ghost crying. How come I don't see a single squirrel in the forest??》
The long-haired fallen knight following Pendragon answered..
《Do you remember when you invaded the fairy kingdom in your past life, great king? Even back then, the elves played a trick and all the animals in the forest ran away, so the forest was empty, right?.》
《Isn’t that a story from a time when the fairy kingdom was overflowing with spiritists? Are you saying that there are both elves and elementals on the human defense line now??》
Pendragon ground his teeth..
《Are these people using clear night tactics?……?》
The fallen knights picked up mushrooms and berries, etc..
Even after eating it in one bite, my hunger was not resolved at all..
《maharaja! This kind of thing doesn't make me hungry.!》
《I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry…….》
《Something to eat… … Give me something to eat, majesty.…….》
《Shut up and be patient, you idiots..》
When we returned to the forward base, it was already night. After setting up camp, Pendragon scolded his men..
《Isn’t it true that if you travel north for three days, you will find a line of defense for royalties? Let’s eat our fill of meat there..》
《Ugh…….》
《I feel like I'm starving to death…….》
The hunger of fallen knights is actually close to a curse..
It was a fact they could not have known, as they had lived in abundance in the darkness of the Lake Kingdom for hundreds of years, devouring the people of the Lake Kingdom who survived even if they died..
Even a small amount of fasting can make mania more severe..
So, that night.
Wow. Wow. Crackling.
Crackling. Yes. Right now.
《……?》
midnight. While Pendragon was pondering the supply issue, a strange sound came to his ears. It was the sound of something being torn apart..
The flagship Pendragon runs to see you.,
《These crazy bastards…….》
The fallen knights could not hold back their hunger and were eating the corpse horses they had ridden..
The fallen knights, who had been swallowing rotten meat in a hurry, realized that the king had arrived and knelt before him..
《great king, great king…….》
《I won't get full from this, majesty.…….》
《Something to eat… … give me something to eat…….》
As he looked at the fallen knights crawling at his feet, holding on to their hungry stomachs, Pendragon suddenly realized something as well..
hungry.
I'm so fucking hungry.
《……flaw.》
Inside the helmet, Pendragon's mouth smiled widely..
《I really like 13.》
《……?》
《But my knights. I can break that too for you..》
Pendragon turned back, his eyes shining with madness..
《Why is supply needed? I already brought it.》
***
《Don't do this, your majesty..》
The long-haired fallen knight cornered in the corner of the forward base pointed his long sword forward and took a deep breath..
《You can't do this to me..》
The remaining twelve corrupted knights were aiming their weapons at the long-haired corrupted knight and swallowing drool from the corners of their mouths..
《It's really sad that the number of us thirteen gives us one.》
Pendragon clicked his great sword and whispered..
《In order to safely advance to the enemy's walls, there is nothing we can do. Just like we did on that winter mountain, we have no choice but to eat one person a day..》
《Your Majesty, please… … ! How loyally I served you…….》
《Thank you, my friend. eat well.》
《Don't do this oh oh oh!》
The remaining fallen knights howled like beasts and rushed in. The long-haired fallen knight swung his sword and screamed..
《Ahhhhh!》
This night. The Fallen Knights were able to have a rich evening..
